Authorities say one man was found dead after an early morning house fire in southwest Little Rock.

Little Rock Fire Department Capt. Jason Weaver says the 31-year-old man was found dead in an upstairs bedroom Thursday. Weaver tells the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (http://is.gd/P8JTuD ) that the victim's aunt, uncle and cousin were all able to escape the blaze.

Authorities have not yet released the victim's name.

Weaver says the 18-year-old cousin was taken to UAMS Medical Center for injuries he suffered after jumping out of a second-story window.

The fire was reported at about 5:30 a.m. Thursday at a home on Verbena Drive.
